Has anybody any experience or tips for using Netbackup for moving
large/complex data sets from one server to another server by setting up a
drive as a backup device  ?

We can't want to use Robocopy as it can't handle very long path names (>240
chars) or have to purchase/certify other products.

We would prefer not to have to backup the data to tape first but copy it
straight to the server by setting up a drive as a device.
